"Electricity wires were stolen, some metre boxes were also taken away, leading to a total shutdown with related consequences," Tebandeke said.
"I beg the Government to come to the rescue of the people and relieve them of the burden."
Tebandeke also requested that the government provide updates on measures being taken to prevent similar incidents in the future.
Vandalism of electricity infrastructure is a persistent problem in Uganda, with districts like Mukono and Kayunga being particularly affected.
